Due to the popularity of our French Treats knitting week in June, we are exploring the possibility of running a 2nd week from 5th September, if there is sufficient interest. The week would be based on Fiona providing one to one assistance with individual projects, leaving the afternoons to relax and knit. If you weren’t able to make the June event, Fiona will provide the handouts from the workshops featured, and will be able to demonstrate some of the techniques. As usual this will be fully catered and will include some excursions. Please let us know if this something of interest

We are delighted to announce the dates for our 2017 knitting week. Fiona Morris will be returning 18th-25th June 2017. This is what Fiona has announced:
"I have planned 2 one day workshops and 2 half day workshops. The first one day workshop will be ‘Knitting Estonian Lace’ which will cover basic lace knitting, working from charts and using specific Estonian techniques e.g. making ‘nupps’ in lace knitting. The second one day workshop will be ‘Two Colour Brioche’ starting with the basic 2-colour technique and for those who are already familiar with Brioche moving on to knitting leaf type patterns in 2-colour Brioche using increases and decreases. The 2 half day workshops are ‘Shadow/Illusion Knitting’, a method of knitting an image which can only be seen when the knitting is views at a particular angle, and ‘Baltic Braids’ covering a braided cast on and 2 or 3 colour braids added to the knitting to create decorative horizontal lines"

We will circulate details soon but contact us to register your interest as places will be snapped up as usual!
